I think that the question of whether to bind pop-up-windows or obey it is specific for each instance where this happens. The reason I made compilation-goto-locus bind it was that I thought that for that command users would prefer to split the screen, even users who in most cases do not. If that is true, binding pop-up-windows there was a good idea. Otherwise, it was not. It would be the same kind of question for each other such place. The answers might not necessarily be the same. I think the right solution is to bind pop-up-windows to (or pop-up-windows compilation-error-pop-up-windows) where compilation-error-pop-up-windows is a new user option. That will make everyone happy. Want to do that? Perhaps some other similar commands could use a similar solution.
